There is a lot of folk lore and very little science. March 8, 1999 5 out of 18 found this review helpful
The author relies on her own experiences and anecdotes from other pet owners. There is very little if any scientific evidence to back up her claims. Some of her criticisms of conventional veterinary care are very out dated, and she seems unaware of recent developments and improvements in vet technology and treatments. If people believe her claims that vaccines are not effective, then their pets' health may well suffer.
The system works! November 19, 1998 3 out of 5 found this review helpful
Having reared two RED Dobermans (notoriously difficult to keep in good coat) and a Labrador Retriever more than successfully, I can state that this book, if followed to the letter, will result in health, vigor, stamina, coat like you have never seen before! Now, if there were just a place where one could purchase Mrs. Levy's Natural Rearing Products I would be a happy camper!
An original classic in holistic animal care. June 28, 1998 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
This book belongs in the library of anyone interested in holistic care for companion animals. Professional herbalists keep this one next to the veterinary Merck manual! Great resource for simple, safe and inexpensive treatments with plants from your garden and foods from your cupboard. The author is considered the Grand Dame of herbalism and a living treasure. A valued medical manual, but easy to use.
This book is really meant for dog owners. February 18, 1998 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I ordered this book because I have two cats and I am interested in herbal healthcare and alternative healthcare for them. I liked this book, but was disappointed in the cat section, which was only a couple of pages. If I owned a dog, I would be delighted by this book. However, as a cat owner, I want a book written specifically for cats.
